(under subclass 175) Subject matter wherein the claimed structure includes means whereby the movable contactor or wiper structure is caused to be first in one direction, and then at least in one other direction, the final selection being the result of the plurality of motions, or whereby at least two or more contactor or wiper structures are caused to have movement relative to one another. The movements may include vertical, rotary, radial or other motions.
